Last week: Minting mechanism and a variety of other things
In last week’s update we promised more sneak-peeks. This week we have shown you how Gear items look like in different editions (using the Avax Carvers as an example) and how we have realized an idea from a fellow Rider, namely using different colors for different levels. Our Riders are now subdivided into five categories: basic, advanced, pro, world class and legendary, each characterized by its own color.
Another item on this week’s agenda was to share a first idea of how minting an Avalanche Rider will work for the P2E collection. Yesterday we have released a Medium article explaining the adventurous and experimental minting concept we have in mind (see links below). Again, most things have happened in the background: We have been further working on our Tokenomics and are ready to share the concept on our in-game token $SKILL within the next days; A lot of time was invested into 3D-modelling, namely the first parts of our Riders (sneak-peeks coming) and more Gear items. Lastly, we have created a (definitely not too dramatic) trailer you can find pinned on our Twitter!

Discuss with the gang on this concept and tell us your opinion in our Discord:

One point we have achieved this week was to share a first impression of our minting process.

This week #1: Tokenomics on SKILL
The first part of our Tokenomics, covering our in-game token $SKILL, will be released this week. It will be the smaller part of our Tokenomics since it’s unlimited in supply and we focus on explaining the token’s regulation in our release. The much bigger part on $POW, covering initial supply, distribution, etc. will follow up within the next weeks, together with both tokens’ launch dates.

This week #2: Sneak-peeks on modelling the Rider and more gear items
Since we have again planned to invest a big part of this week’s time into 3D-modelling our 2nd collection, there will come another bunch of sneak peeks on what we’re doing, namely more gear items and some first impressions on the “naked” Riders. (No NSFW though, sorry…) We may need another one or two weeks until we can present a sneak-peek on a full Rider though, however we certainly won’t miss out on showing you enough updates on where we stand until then!

This week #3: Background work: Smart contracts development, “Help & Win” section on website and more
As with the other weeks of March, we have planned to realize a lot of work that needs to be done behind the scenes so we’re able to start Q2 with a solid base and build on it with an offensive marketing strategy. This week we start developping our smart contracts, and will also gather ideas for the “Help & Win” section on our website, so a part of our marketing can fuel itself. We plan that this section (which also needs smart contracts for connecting your Metamask, etc.) goes live until the end of March, too. If you have any cool ideas what others can do to “Help and Win”, share them with the Gang in our Discord!

Thanks again for reading our update and your awesome support, Riders! We have big plans for this project and they need big preparation! Now with three people in our team things go faster and we’re even more thrilled to achieve all the things we have set for ourselves in our roadmap!

As always: Stay tuned for more and let’s shred another week! 🚀🏂
